Hi, As our repository grows, it's getting slower. The main complaint is doing an update takes about 4-5 minutes, even when there are no files updated. The project is about 15,100 files, 818 megs on the server. The server info is: cvsnt version 2.5.03 redhat 9 Pentium 2.8ghz harddrives 2 Ultra160 SCSI 15K rpm, software raid mirrored. 1 gig of ram The client machines are WinXP, accessing useing TortoiseCVS with sserver over 100mbit ethernet. There is very little cpu or hard drive activity on the clients. On the server while an update is running it's only useing 2-5% cpu The Load gets up to about 2.2. The load is normally 0.15 when there is no cvs activity. iostat -k 5 shows this pretty consistently for harddrive usage: Device: tps kB_read/s kB_wrtn/s dev8-0 158.00 40.00 2538.40 dev8-1 158.00 47.20 2538.40 There's a few other tasks on the machine, but are idle most of the time and useing very little resources. If it's any help when we switched from cvs to cvsnt about a year ago we noticed an immediate drop in speed, that has slowly been getting worse. I'm wondering why it's writting so much just doing an update, seems like that'd mostly be reads. Any ideas on ways to speed cvsnt up a little bit (or a lot)? Thanks!
